Google Has Been Fined £15,700

Ever tried to find your house on Google Maps? Well apparently Google hacked in to street camera's to gain the images in the first place, while also sending streets cars round with camera's that managed to catch emails and passwords. Many times Google has been accused of delaying investigations by not reply and giving out the information asked for by The Federal Communications Commission. They said that Google 'deliberately impeded and delayed' apparently they did this for months on end. According to the FCC the leader of Google didn't respond to requests for documents and information. This all started because in 2010 Google said that their street view cars had managed to pick up insecure wi-fi data.


The FCC still say that they have many unanswered questions about Google Maps. The unnamed engineer that came up with the codes for Google Maps used the Fifth Amendment rights against incriminating himself so that he didn't have to testify. I personally think that the FCC have just misunderstood Google but I also think that Google should stop delaying and try and prove their innocence, don't you think? Leave and comments or views that you might have.
